I'm glad Al politely called Claudia out cause why the hell would we read your book Claudia. Sometimes you can learn from people's failures. Jada isn't on her high horse in her book.
I don't think he was "calling her out" but just asking that (since she's mentioned several times before that she may possibly like to write a memoir one day) she should now share what she'd include inside it. I think it was fitting that he asked and I remember her always saying that if she actually did put one together, she'd want it to be inspiring. I feel that she just wants to help other people even if it helps at least one person. (I don't think she says it because she thinks that she's that huge/famous or that she's going to touch millions and millions of lives.) Frankly, I'd like to read her life story because I also went thru abuse as a young girl then as a young woman (molestation then rahppe). In my opinion, Claudia is very talented, strong, intelligent, and more so I believe her memoir would be interesting.
@mrivera7696 but, why can't Jada want the same thing? Claudia says she didn't read a page, nor an excerpt, so how would Claudia know Jada is writing the book from a high horse? Jada is also saying in her story, "this is how I figured it out. This is what I did. Don't do what I did". You can't have an opinion on a book you have not read.
Ms Funky Dineva - that is what you want to know - the tea. Not all of us are like you. Thank you for telling us about you. We appreciate knowing more about you.
Now Claudia, you are winning me over with that response. You kept it honest and real. Some of us are just tired of trying to figure out which story is "true" so we decided we aren't playing anymore. We packed our toys and went on to another sandbox NOT belonging to Jada!! Bye Girl.

Thank you, Al for explaining the difference between being #81 on a retail website and being #3 on a BEST SELLER’S LIST. The purpose of writing a memoir is for the author to give you their background story, which Jada does. Contrary to what Claudia says, Jada doesn’t speak about how she’s “better” than anyone, she’s simply telling you her life story and what she’s learned from it. And to Funky’s comment-what’s considered “tea” in a memoir is subjective to the reader. If y’all don’t like Jada, just say that. But don’t make a misleading video title and spread misinformation. Also, don’t judge a book by its cover. Either read the book before commenting or just say you won’t read the book and move on to the next thang lol. The hateration & holleration is unnecessary. ❤
@@wunderbarbieoftheworld2531 that's what I'm trying to figure out they mad because they didn't tell the world they were broke up,but was still married and still married still to this day,you know what I find funny is,just wait until other married couples come out and say this because its PLENTY OF THEM🤣🤣
@@budlight6665 Exactly. I know couples that have been separated for years, still friends, date others, do not plan on ever marrying again. Reasons on why, vary. I've seen others that divorce & remarry the same person years later after each have "grown" to maturity. To each their own. I'm just amazed at the anger and vitriol fired towards Jada. People are mad because she "tells too much", "not enough", how she tells it", "when she tells it". Just ridiculous. Really, these people just want Will single. Why?
Funky is wrong! Yes, lots of people buy celebrity memoirs because they want gossip but there are also lots and lots of us who want to see outs lives in somebody whose gone thru trials and tribulations and made it to the other side so we can see that actually is possible to come away from it all ok (or at least a bit better). Some of us actually do yo to the books for inspiration. There are still other folks who may not be shopping for the "te" or motivation but instead just to get to know a little more about the background of that writer. We may be intrigued by where they grew up, what the family was like, etcetera. Anyway, I'd like to read Claudia's story some day. If she waits a few more years she'll have so much more to add to the story.
Claudia has a bee in her bonnet about Jada! And the only thing I can go to is jealousy cos why?? Claudia has referenced soooo many little stories about ppl she’s interacted with in Hollywood on TGIF. She told all Jamie foxx business and he let her have it. Now she has qualms about telling too much and ppl on their ‘high horse’. Claudia you are 50. Jada is a few years older. She’s has and is doing the work on herself and I’m sorry if that makes you insecure then go do the work on yourself. Go to therapy and work through those traumas. Because from the outside looking in. I’d rather have Jada’s mindset than yours 🫠
Jada made a promise to herself to never divorce the money! There's NOTHING good in her intentions, she's not honorable for staying married to her paycheck. He worth 300 million more than her. She's not even safe from her children whose net worth will eclipse hers soon. She has no value outside of her connection to Will. That's what she promise to never divorce.
@@KeishaCharmaine it what universe does it take two to divorce. Are you being purposely dense. Wills house cost more than her net worth, his delusion is that he’s in love with a living cancer. 70% of divorces are BY THE WOMAN. But of course you know better than people with PHDs in the government who get paid to study our countries statistics 🇩🇴🤣🇵🇷
Since when is being on the New York Times best sellers list a flop??? I feel people who don’t actually plan on reading the book should keep their opinions
I reckon alot of folks are mad at Jada cos theyve been subconsciously living vicariously through her and Will (relationship goals). Their unconventional marriage isnt for everyone but if it works for them ...good for them. A large part of the book relates to mental health, a topic we as black folks don't talk about enough.
Black people should not be taking advice about mental health from narcissistic lying individuals that does nothing but create more confusion for someone dealing with a mental illness.
I usually hope people do well on their endeavors; however, I am hoping that Jada will go and sit down somewhere, since her book is not "Worthy" people are just "plain" sick of her "capitalizing" off of her dysfunctional marriage, and talking "negatively" about her husband, and her marriage!
I just don’t like that ppl let these white celebrities play in y’all face and and do all kind of wild ish. And they still famous. Miss me with the Jada and Will outrage.
I love Al's question to Claudia at the end and the way he defended Jada's book success. This is definitely false news and reporting. Her book is doing very well and everyone who has actually read her book has given her praises and says it is such a great read. I plan to buy it and read it. I love how she doesn't let all of this negativity stop her. I'm also glad that she has people around her that love on her b/c all of this negativity is just draining.
Ummm..None of you have read the book, but are critiquing it. Really? I do give Q credit for admitting he's messy and only would look for gossip fodder. ...and thank you Al for giving her credit for being on the NYork Times list. Note they didn't lie about being married. They just didn't tell they were separated. The book is actually about her emotionally challenged journey..and emo growth. That's why there are quotes, passages for thought. It allows the reader to conceptualize where her head was at that particular stage of her journey. You all, like many, are judging Jada on speculation, distorted/skewed information. Do better.
Baby sharing your story is giving people motivation. Because unlike the three of you most people are flawed. It’s OK to admit that one time in your life maybe you weren’t perfect and how far you have come in the lessons that you have learned.
Jada wants to heal herself and show the world what a GURU she is for self healing...she ought to first start with the PLAGIARIZING she and Will committed which lead to someone's DEATH... Jada should clean up her mess or HEAL that FIRST!
No one really cares about Jada and Will. Jada turned Will into a WIMP and she wants to be boss. THE END. Close the book and find something better to read.
Jada book not a flop 3 or 4 on the lists Great. but she shouldnt spill so much tea. Let the fans be curious about whats in her book. I wouldve love it If she wouldve admit her and Pac almost went there but decide 2 remain friends I believe they really did care about one another and they love was before Will.
She’s number 3 on nyt and #3 on Amazon for the ppl who want to lie and say she bought nyt. Being #3 for most sold books on Amazon means it’s far from a Flop ppl don’t do their research. Shes also a bestseller on Barnes for hardcover. You don’t have to like jada but lying about her book sales is crazy when google would tell you the truth. Ps I listened to her audiobook of Worthy and it’s phenomenal and 95% of it wasn’t picked up by the blogs so you don’t know much of anything unless you read the book
She bought a book about herself. She basically did the same thing Britney Spears did one gets celebrated and the other one gets dragged by everyone in the media it’s BS. 🙄🙄🙄🙄
This is not a race issue. People have been speaking for Britney for years and she has been legally forced into staying silent. That’s not the case for Jada. Britney’s side of the story is 20 plus years overdue. Also, not to take away from Jada’s success but Britney is an icon. People love to hear an icon tell their story. That’s why no one said anything when Will was promoting his memoir. He’s an icon as well. You have to reach a certain level of fame and admiration in order to complain about your life without having the public roll their eyes at you.
Stop being a dum dum , she is nowhere as accomplished as Britney Spears. One is known as a mega pop star at one time, and the other is just Will's wife. She needs Will to have a name, stop being a dum dum🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Im glad Al educated them on the book industry. The book is a good read, you will see she protected Will's image and now letting it go. A book is cathartic for the author, if other peopke rock with it, great, if they dont, wasnt for you. I dont buy books for tea lol, but that is why Q is doing what he is doing.
Plus do you know how many people are selling books on Amazon?? Millions of books and she’s 83 on Amazon out of millions of authors she’s still doing good!!
Claudia Jada has been married for almost 20 years. She could tell you a thing or two about the trials and tribulations of marriage especially since you’re 50 something you’re a woman with no kids or a husband. I don’t know this perfect shit that y’all are expecting from people. My biggest lessons in life came from failure.
She has BARELY been married for 20 years... and married 2 a bottom. She can't anybody anything. Plus, no everybody wants marriage and kids. Straight women are sooo brainwashed. Them husbands and kids draining the life out of ya'll 😂
I love this show but i am not feeling the negativity from people who haven’t even read her book to give an opinion. I’ve read Kevin Harts Book Angie Martinez as well as a slew of others and enjoy them speaking about their journey. Not everyone is looking for a salacious story
Thank you Al no need to bash her. Lots of married people live apart. All this nonsense is because she is black women. Her husband wrote a book also. No one criticizes him.
As an author of A self-help book, "A Guide to Balance, Fulfillment, and Happiness for Yourself and a Healthy Long-Term Relationship", with far less fame and assets than Jada, it's okay to make an assumption about a book, but don't treat the assumption as a fact or speak on it as one. In this case, I think these fair analysis. I agree with Claudia about Jada did a disservice to her book by giving the juicy things away, but she did more of a disservice by not explaining the purpose of the book. In all those sound bites I didn't hear anything about what she intended this book to do for the reader. So, many people have the idea in their head of just messy tea like the hosts of this show and me. I could be wrong but as much as it sold, which was great regardless of what it didn't sell, I think it could've sold more if she presented the book and allowed readers to expose the juicy messy tea in posts on social media. But big ups to Jada and may she find peace within, which is what my book "A Guide to Balance, Fulfillment, and Happiness for Yourself and a Healthy Long-Term Relationship" encourages and gives ways to do.
I pray she done told it all bc im flat foot tired of Jada talking. And im not being negative im just tired of her seeking attention plus i dont trust that she is telling the truth.
Her book is good and helped me when finding the best agent for me! And she actually placed #3! People just hop on hate trains and don’t even know what they hate her for! Her marriage the fool, but her story inspiring
I will wait for her book to come to the local library🤣🤣. She talks in parables most time instead of getting to the juice. I'll wait! Im grabbing that Brittany book.
I'm only speaking for myself but personally when it comes to ANYTHING Jada related IDGAF, sorry, not sorry... she's handled herself and her husband in a very trashy manner so my thoughts and level of respect for her are less than steller. I don't wish to know her negative or positive I just don't care, period.
Jada's book is number 3 on The New York Times best seller's list because Will Smith made his only comment to "The New York Times".... Most Black women are still disappointed in Jada because she did not take accountability for manipulating a 23 yr old boy. Also, she markets herself as someone who empowers women but she keeps bragging about having an emotional affair with another black woman's man(Tupac). What about the black women who were in a relationship with Tupac at the time? What about protecting their feelings? How is telling those stories empowering them?
Can somebody told me what all Jada has revealed to us about her marriage because you keep saying, she told us everything and if there’s anything else to tell that’s too much. Somebody enlighten me.
Black media should be ashamed of the way they're doing this lady for no reason at all. Jada is owed an apology from the masses. Will is truly the real villain. Jada is better than me. After that messy red table sit down with Will, I would've went to spend the night at the lawyer's house and made sure we filed for divorce first thing in the morning. He completely left her out to dry. But they clearly love each other on a spiritual level so blessings to them both. Will and Jada never said they had a perfect marriage. The public and media made assumptions. There was so much false information spread about Jada it's a damn shame. And much of what people are saying she said, SHE NEVER SAID. On top that, collective emotional IQ is in the single digits. The book is indeed inspiring, informative, and it puts so much into perspective. To add, black women have always had to work harder. Of course white people don't have to do much to sell, especially a superstar like Britney Spears. Michelle Obama had to do press tours and conferences, and she was the first black First Lady. So sales are not going to come so easy for black people, especially black women. But the continued hate Jada is getting from the black community is so disheartening. She's trying to correct the false narrative and yall just won't let up. You're in fact worse than white media.
I agree with all of this! Claudia sometimes shows she has common sense and an EQ but in this topic her bias and insecurity has been showing a lot! If she has a memoir she’ll know how Jada feels if ppl don't support her book and if she gets any backlash. The dismissal of Jada’s story is a shame. And what Jada has that Claudia is failing to show is compassion and self reflection/acountability. All reasons why I'd buy Jada’s book and not hers.
@@TheFilmLocker Idk what Claudia's problem is. She acts like Jada did something to her personally. In actuality it's been Claudia, this panel, and other black media that have perpetuated the false narrative and misinformation. It really seems deliberate. Why in tf would they choose a headline saying this lady's book has flopped when she's a best seller? Why not promote the positive? Hasn't she been beaten down enough? And for no reason at all. Meanwhile, they coddle tf out of Britney. I'm really starting to look at Q differently. I didn't want to believe he has a vendetta against black women but be it on purpose or inadvertently, it's showing.
@@EricaHansberry 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I've watched Jada be embraced on numerous podcasts , Chelsea handler, Lewis hoses, & Jay shetty… The only black media that has given her space to speak and not torn her down was Iyanla’s podcast. Because Iyanla gets it, her words! These 3 are not as evolved as I hoped they'd be, especially Q who sometimes sees the nuances and shows some empathy.
@@TheFilmLocker And Sway and his crew! They showed her so much love and it was really refreshing to see. She even explained why it's so important for women, especially black women to tell their own story. We've been denied that right for so long. And you can tell because our community doesn't respond well to outspoken and candid individuals. It's unfortunate but hopefully Jada will continue to inspire us. She is loved and appreciated. Also, I feel what you're saying about this panel. I think you just have to take them for who they are and what this is. I'm learning to lower my expectations. I appreciate this dialogue btw, it's great speaking to people who understand what's going on and exist outside of the confines of group thinking. Blessings to you. 🙂❤
This is what I think the truth is. I think jada and Will’s relationship is all kinds of messy and unstable. I think hindsight is 20/20. I think they look back and analyze everything and then say to each other, you know what? We were actually divorced but not on paper. So, we’ll go with that one. But now I think we’re working in things. So, that’s what we’ll live out. For now. And Then they pretend it was all clear from the beginning. Not actually hindsight. And if what I just said doesn’t make sense it’s because they don’t make sense!
Jada’s book only sold 29,000+ copies v. Britney’s that sold over 1m in its first week alone. Jada is no. 3 on the NY Times Best Sellers list but she isn’t on any other best selling list. Even John Stamos’ book is outselling hers. I don’t think the poor sales have anything to do with colour. People are genuinely tired of Jada and Will at this point.
Why support someone who continues to lie lie lie and spinning narratives to garner attention and sympathy. Is she telling herself she's worthy or telling readers that they are worthy. The narcissism of them all. May God Almighty Jehovah ABBA have mercy on their souls.
I dont know why so many folks are mad at Jada, talking bout she said so many negative things about Will. The same Will has gone on record saying he has read the book, supports her 100% and is the happinest he's ever been in their 'life partnership'...if he ain't mad, why are folks in their feelings.? Hmm.
Every time I ask someone what did she say that was so bad, they can never give a direct quote, or it was something they picked up from a blog that she never said. People don't even know why they're mad. Just mad for the hell of it.
Yall believe everything these celebrities tell you. He's living his best life .. chile please. These celebrities are messed up, drugged up, sexed up, pilled up & smoked up along with their kids. Next thing you hear is either them or their child putting a bullet in their head or overdosing & everyone is surprised. That business is cut throat & the standards of beauty is unrealistically stressful. The grind to stay relevant and youthful has led mant of these celebrities to do God knows what. They smile on Camera but behind closed doors is misery. These people have no peace and can lie better than a politician. Their job literally is to sell you a false reality. Come on people.
@@EricaHansberry Better than you mentally it seems. Tell me where the lie is, but your response lets me know you have no rebuttal. My question to you is are you tired of digesting verbal feces but I see it's a no! Some people intake anything along as it comes with a great spin! The lies we tell ourselves.

I don't know how you got all of that based on me asking are you alright. Umm, but to answer your question, no beautiful, I'm not tired of whatever it is you're talking about I'm a little confused to begin with. No need to clarify though.

Thank you, Al for explaining the difference between being #81 on a retail website and being #3 on a BEST SELLER’S LIST. The purpose of writing a memoir is for the author to give you their background story, which Jada does. Contrary to what Claudia says, Jada doesn’t speak about how she’s “better” than anyone, she’s simply telling you her life story and what she’s learned from it. And to Funky’s comment-what’s considered “tea” in a memoir is subjective to the reader.
If y’all don’t like Jada, just say that. But don’t make a misleading video title and spread misinformation. Also, don’t judge a book by its cover. Either read the book before commenting or just say you won’t read the book and move on to the next thang lol. The hateration & holleration is unnecessary. ❤
Right cause her book was very good actually
On point!!!
SOUNDS LIKE HER PUBLISHER BOUGHT BOOKS...LIKE THEY USED TO DO WITH ALBUMS BACK IN THE DAY TO MAKE GOLD STATUS
I wouldn't buy for the same reason al gave . Shes lied about so many things I wouldn't trust anything in that book.
How ppl going say she lying its ,her truth ppl just mad about her truth that's all
@@budlight6665most of these are Whyte women. They, like Claudia, hate that will married a bw.
What did she lie about? So they didn't divulge they were separated until THEY decided to. It's their lives/narrative to tell.
@@wunderbarbieoftheworld2531 that's what I'm trying to figure out they mad because they didn't tell the world they were broke up,but was still married and still married still to this day,you know what I find funny is,just wait until other married couples come out and say this because its PLENTY OF THEM🤣🤣
@@budlight6665 Exactly. I know couples that have been separated for years, still friends, date others, do not plan on ever marrying again. Reasons on why, vary. I've seen others that divorce & remarry the same person years later after each have "grown" to maturity. To each their own.
I'm just amazed at the anger and vitriol fired towards Jada. People are mad because she "tells too much", "not enough", how she tells it", "when she tells it". Just ridiculous. Really, these people just want Will single. Why?
I’m not purchasing that book Worthy , I didn’t find the red table interesting bleak at most .
how is it a flop being #3 on the best sellers list. Yall really hate this woman so bad for what?
totally agree it’s the fakeness that you act like you guys are married not separated and friends… it just seems like all for money
She told enough puplically that turned some people off
Exactly
85 on Amazon list is great. Amazon has 1 million plus books on its platform
Claudia said she would write a book that is basically what Funky said the people ARE NOT INTERESTED IN! What an oxymoron! 🤣🤣
Funky is wrong! Yes, lots of people buy celebrity memoirs because they want gossip but there are also lots and lots of us who want to see outs lives in somebody whose gone thru trials and tribulations and made it to the other side so we can see that actually is possible to come away from it all ok (or at least a bit better). Some of us actually do yo to the books for inspiration. There are still other folks who may not be shopping for the "te" or motivation but instead just to get to know a little more about the background of that writer. We may be intrigued by where they grew up, what the family was like, etcetera. Anyway, I'd like to read Claudia's story some day. If she waits a few more years she'll have so much more to add to the story.
I bought the book it’s a great read .
Claudia has a bee in her bonnet about Jada! And the only thing I can go to is jealousy cos why?? Claudia has referenced soooo many little stories about ppl she’s interacted with in Hollywood on TGIF. She told all Jamie foxx business and he let her have it. Now she has qualms about telling too much and ppl on their ‘high horse’. Claudia you are 50. Jada is a few years older. She’s has and is doing the work on herself and I’m sorry if that makes you insecure then go do the work on yourself. Go to therapy and work through those traumas. Because from the outside looking in. I’d rather have Jada’s mindset than yours 🫠
When did people count Amazon & Barnes and Noble as rankings
Jada made a promise to herself to never divorce the money! There's NOTHING good in her intentions, she's not honorable for staying married to her paycheck. He worth 300 million more than her. She's not even safe from her children whose net worth will eclipse hers soon. She has no value outside of her connection to Will. That's what she promise to never divorce.
It takes two to divorce. Will is just as committed but Jada is the problem? Ok.
@@KeishaCharmaine it what universe does it take two to divorce. Are you being purposely dense. Wills house cost more than her net worth, his delusion is that he’s in love with a living cancer. 70% of divorces are BY THE WOMAN. But of course you know better than people with PHDs in the government who get paid to study our countries statistics 🇩🇴🤣🇵🇷
Since when is being on the New York Times best sellers list a flop??? I feel people who don’t actually plan on reading the book should keep their opinions
I reckon alot of folks are mad at Jada cos theyve been subconsciously living vicariously through her and Will (relationship goals). Their unconventional marriage isnt for everyone but if it works for them ...good for them. A large part of the book relates to mental health, a topic we as black folks don't talk about enough.
Black people should not be taking advice about mental health from narcissistic lying individuals that does nothing but create more confusion for someone dealing with a mental illness.
Irrelevant without Will😂😂😂
That part 🎯
Al didn’t have to get her like that! 😂😂😂
I think the haters think they have won! I have purchased the audio version. It is entertaining while I'm working!
I usually hope people do well on their endeavors; however, I am hoping that Jada will go and sit down somewhere, since her book is not "Worthy" people are just "plain" sick of her "capitalizing" off of her dysfunctional marriage, and talking "negatively" about her husband, and her marriage!
Never judge a book by its cover and things are never what they appear to be.
Actually the book was very good
@@devanshepard9118 I will take your word for it, but I won't be buying it. God Bless
@@lakeside321 I still won't be buying her book. God Bless
I just don’t like that ppl let these white celebrities play in y’all face and and do all kind of wild ish. And they still famous. Miss me with the Jada and Will outrage.
I agree
I love Al's question to Claudia at the end and the way he defended Jada's book success. This is definitely false news and reporting. Her book is doing very well and everyone who has actually read her book has given her praises and says it is such a great read. I plan to buy it and read it. I love how she doesn't let all of this negativity stop her. I'm also glad that she has people around her that love on her b/c all of this negativity is just draining.
Yep, agreed!
THANK YOU!!! SUCH A BEAUTIFUL COMMENT!!! NICE TO KNOW THAT THERE ARE MORE PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO SAY NO TO AGENDA PUSHING AND SHOVING!! 👍👍👍
Jada is toxic....I don't care abt her as a person. She lacks character and I just don't like her behavior.
As Judge Judy would say. "If You Tell The Truth, You Don't Have To Remember Anything"
Ummm..None of you have read the book, but are critiquing it. Really? I do give Q credit for admitting he's messy and only would look for gossip fodder. ...and thank you Al for giving her credit for being on the NYork Times list. Note they didn't lie about being married. They just didn't tell they were separated.
The book is actually about her emotionally challenged journey..and emo growth. That's why there are quotes, passages for thought. It allows the reader to conceptualize where her head was at that particular stage of her journey.
You all, like many, are judging Jada on speculation, distorted/skewed information. Do better.
Give this book some time. I can't wait to get it.
Baby sharing your story is giving people motivation. Because unlike the three of you most people are flawed. It’s OK to admit that one time in your life maybe you weren’t perfect and how far you have come in the lessons that you have learned.
On point!!
Whatever..that's why they're blacklisted. She opened the door to criticism with her red fable talk lies.
@@pattyw7273 how do you know what is lies? Do you know her do you know Will... do you even know one person who knows them?
Jada wants to heal herself and show the world what a GURU she is for self healing...she ought to first start with the PLAGIARIZING she and Will committed which lead to someone's DEATH... Jada should clean up her mess or HEAL that FIRST!
How is she blacklisted when her book #3 on bestsellers list. blacklisting for what talking about he marriage that doesnt affect anyone
No one really cares about Jada and Will. Jada turned Will into a WIMP and she wants to be boss. THE END. Close the book and find something better to read.
Jada book not a flop 3 or 4 on the lists Great. but she shouldnt spill so much tea. Let the fans be curious about whats in her book. I wouldve love it If she wouldve admit her and Pac almost went there but decide 2 remain friends I believe they really did care about one another and they love was before Will.
I wanna get her book if theres an audiobook of it
There is
Audible. And it's so freaking good!
She’s number 3 on nyt and #3 on Amazon for the ppl who want to lie and say she bought nyt. Being #3 for most sold books on Amazon means it’s far from a Flop ppl don’t do their research. Shes also a bestseller on Barnes for hardcover. You don’t have to like jada but lying about her book sales is crazy when google would tell you the truth. Ps I listened to her audiobook of Worthy and it’s phenomenal and 95% of it wasn’t picked up by the blogs so you don’t know much of anything unless you read the book
She bought a book about herself. She basically did the same thing Britney Spears did one gets celebrated and the other one gets dragged by everyone in the media it’s BS. 🙄🙄🙄🙄
This is not a race issue. People have been speaking for Britney for years and she has been legally forced into staying silent. That’s not the case for Jada. Britney’s side of the story is 20 plus years overdue. Also, not to take away from Jada’s success but Britney is an icon. People love to hear an icon tell their story. That’s why no one said anything when Will was promoting his memoir. He’s an icon as well. You have to reach a certain level of fame and admiration in order to complain about your life without having the public roll their eyes at you.
@@lynne709 Facts
Stop being a dum dum , she is nowhere as accomplished as Britney Spears. One is known as a mega pop star at one time, and the other is just Will's wife. She needs Will to have a name, stop being a dum dum🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
fax@@lynne709
I brought her book today from Target.
How is it
@rondas7772 I've only read a few pages, and I'm enjoying it.
@@auzij4949 I definitely gonna order it from Amazon
I agree with Q.
YOU BETTER SPEAK ON IT FUNKY‼️
Im glad Al educated them on the book industry. The book is a good read, you will see she protected Will's image and now letting it go. A book is cathartic for the author, if other peopke rock with it, great, if they dont, wasnt for you.
I dont buy books for tea lol, but that is why Q is doing what he is doing.
Plus do you know how many people are selling books on Amazon?? Millions of books and she’s 83 on Amazon out of millions of authors she’s still doing good!!
Claudia Jada has been married for almost 20 years. She could tell you a thing or two about the trials and tribulations of marriage especially since you’re 50 something you’re a woman with no kids or a husband. I don’t know this perfect shit that y’all are expecting from people. My biggest lessons in life came from failure.
She has BARELY been married for 20 years... and married 2 a bottom. She can't anybody anything.
Plus, no everybody wants marriage and kids. Straight women are sooo brainwashed. Them husbands and kids draining the life out of ya'll 😂
Kids and marriage are not accomplishments.
At least Claudia is happy and single ❤
@@ReadyorNot811I think kids and marriage are accomplishments, but they are not the most important nor the only accomplishments in the world.
Actually they've been married for almost 25 yrs
Thanks Al because Claudia and Q are being salty
Thats why TGIG is on its last days! The public is sick of the NEGATIVITY from TGIG
I went to Target to buy Britneys book and it was sold out but there were plenty copies of Worthy
Yep because people love Britney. No one likes Jada
@@cindyp6528people still love Jada!
Brittany went #1 last week. Brittany did it without a book tour.
Duh. Brittney is a popular WHYTE star hun. More fan base. STOP being the hater, Whyte women.
@@cindyp6528 No one likes UUUUU either.
I would 100% read a book from Claudia. She's been in so many circle on some fly on the wall ish. Bring it on Ms Jordan ❤❤
I love this show but i am not feeling the negativity from people who haven’t even read her book to give an opinion. I’ve read Kevin Harts Book Angie Martinez as well as a slew of others and enjoy them speaking about their journey. Not everyone is looking for a salacious story
Yep I liked both of their books also
It's too much , the Smiths are a mess
Thank you Al no need to bash her. Lots of married people live apart. All this nonsense is because she is black women. Her husband wrote a book also. No one criticizes him.
jada is unlikaeble, im a black woman and can see that her personality turns ppl off
She probably bought a boatload of books to make the list.
Absolutely,that’s how they get the numbers.
As an author of A self-help book, "A Guide to Balance, Fulfillment, and Happiness for Yourself and a Healthy Long-Term Relationship", with far less fame and assets than Jada, it's okay to make an assumption about a book, but don't treat the assumption as a fact or speak on it as one. In this case, I think these fair analysis. I agree with Claudia about Jada did a disservice to her book by giving the juicy things away, but she did more of a disservice by not explaining the purpose of the book. In all those sound bites I didn't hear anything about what she intended this book to do for the reader. So, many people have the idea in their head of just messy tea like the hosts of this show and me. I could be wrong but as much as it sold, which was great regardless of what it didn't sell, I think it could've sold more if she presented the book and allowed readers to expose the juicy messy tea in posts on social media.
But big ups to Jada and may she find peace within, which is what my book "A Guide to Balance, Fulfillment, and Happiness for Yourself and a Healthy Long-Term Relationship" encourages and gives ways to do.
No one wants to read about Jada Pinkett and Will Smith anymore. Will Smith is buying up all the books, he will pay people in Budapest to take them.
Love this show!!!❤
Me too. TEAGIF keeps it real!
That book flopped because she told everything for free.
I keep it a 💯 I am broke right now, if someone where to pay me $10,000 us to read hear book I would’ve passed…
I pray she done told it all bc im flat foot tired of Jada talking. And im not being negative im just tired of her seeking attention plus i dont trust that she is telling the truth.
Her book is good and helped me when finding the best agent for me! And she actually placed #3! People just hop on hate trains and don’t even know what they hate her for! Her marriage the fool, but her story inspiring
Its a New York Times Bestseller #3 to be exact, why are yall so OBSESSED with this lady!
Lmao Ms Funky Dineva went off!
Agree !!!! I DONT CARE about Jadas story !
Flop where she’s doing ok .
Jada is not interesting period. Even if she didn’t reveal anything about Will and their relationship. Jada is a non factor.
Everyone is a factor because they have life until God says the end
I love me some @FUNKYDINEVA! He be on point!
I will wait for her book to come to the local library🤣🤣. She talks in parables most time instead of getting to the juice. I'll wait! Im grabbing that Brittany book.
That’s the smart thing to do.
So, you buy Britney's book, giving her your money, but you will rent Jada's book, keeping your money away from her? We never getting out of this mess.
Thank you Al. I wish her luck. This woman did not commit a crime.
I love Claudia. She seems to always be fair.
She’s a bit of a heater. I’m starting to think Jada had sex with her man, because why do you have because our personal vitriol against this woman.
I'm only speaking for myself but personally when it comes to ANYTHING Jada related IDGAF, sorry, not sorry... she's handled herself and her husband in a very trashy manner so my thoughts and level of respect for her are less than steller. I don't wish to know her negative or positive I just don't care, period.
Jada's book is number 3 on The New York Times best seller's list because Will Smith made his only comment to "The New York Times"....
Most Black women are still disappointed in Jada because she did not take accountability for manipulating a 23 yr old boy. Also, she markets herself as someone who empowers women but she keeps bragging about having an emotional affair with another black woman's man(Tupac). What about the black women who were in a relationship with Tupac at the time? What about protecting their feelings? How is telling those stories empowering them?
Can somebody told me what all Jada has revealed to us about her marriage because you keep saying, she told us everything and if there’s anything else to tell that’s too much. Somebody enlighten me.
Who would want to read a book written by a toxic narcissist?
I bought Jada book Worthy the audio version great buy.
I'm gonna buy it
Black media should be ashamed of the way they're doing this lady for no reason at all. Jada is owed an apology from the masses. Will is truly the real villain. Jada is better than me. After that messy red table sit down with Will, I would've went to spend the night at the lawyer's house and made sure we filed for divorce first thing in the morning. He completely left her out to dry. But they clearly love each other on a spiritual level so blessings to them both. Will and Jada never said they had a perfect marriage. The public and media made assumptions.
There was so much false information spread about Jada it's a damn shame. And much of what people are saying she said, SHE NEVER SAID. On top that, collective emotional IQ is in the single digits. The book is indeed inspiring, informative, and it puts so much into perspective. To add, black women have always had to work harder. Of course white people don't have to do much to sell, especially a superstar like Britney Spears. Michelle Obama had to do press tours and conferences, and she was the first black First Lady. So sales are not going to come so easy for black people, especially black women.
But the continued hate Jada is getting from the black community is so disheartening. She's trying to correct the false narrative and yall just won't let up. You're in fact worse than white media.
I agree with all of this! Claudia sometimes shows she has common sense and an EQ but in this topic her bias and insecurity has been showing a lot! If she has a memoir she’ll know how Jada feels if ppl don't support her book and if she gets any backlash. The dismissal of Jada’s story is a shame. And what Jada has that Claudia is failing to show is compassion and self reflection/acountability. All reasons why I'd buy Jada’s book and not hers.
@@TheFilmLocker Idk what Claudia's problem is. She acts like Jada did something to her personally. In actuality it's been Claudia, this panel, and other black media that have perpetuated the false narrative and misinformation. It really seems deliberate. Why in tf would they choose a headline saying this lady's book has flopped when she's a best seller? Why not promote the positive? Hasn't she been beaten down enough? And for no reason at all. Meanwhile, they coddle tf out of Britney. I'm really starting to look at Q differently. I didn't want to believe he has a vendetta against black women but be it on purpose or inadvertently, it's showing.
@@EricaHansberry 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I've watched Jada be embraced on numerous podcasts , Chelsea handler, Lewis hoses, & Jay shetty…
The only black media that has given her space to speak and not torn her down was Iyanla’s podcast. Because Iyanla gets it, her words! These 3 are not as evolved as I hoped they'd be, especially Q who sometimes sees the nuances and shows some empathy.
@@TheFilmLocker And Sway and his crew! They showed her so much love and it was really refreshing to see. She even explained why it's so important for women, especially black women to tell their own story. We've been denied that right for so long. And you can tell because our community doesn't respond well to outspoken and candid individuals. It's unfortunate but hopefully Jada will continue to inspire us. She is loved and appreciated.
Also, I feel what you're saying about this panel. I think you just have to take them for who they are and what this is. I'm learning to lower my expectations.
I appreciate this dialogue btw, it's great speaking to people who understand what's going on and exist outside of the confines of group thinking. Blessings to you.
🙂❤
@@EricaHansberry 😊🙏🏾
This is what I think the truth is. I think jada and Will’s relationship is all kinds of messy and unstable. I think hindsight is 20/20. I think they look back and analyze everything and then say to each other, you know what? We were actually divorced but not on paper. So, we’ll go with that one. But now I think we’re working in things. So, that’s what we’ll live out. For now.
And Then they pretend it was all clear from the beginning. Not actually hindsight. And if what I just said doesn’t make sense it’s because they don’t make sense!
Yall niggas sweet 😂😂😂😂
Cause you said a mouth fool and we not trying to hear it!!
Thank you Al !!
Okay, they need to stop coming for her. Let her speak her truth.
She crazy
Jada is that chick period!
Jada’s book is good !!! However she damaged herself with her promotion.
Yep
Jada’s book only sold 29,000+ copies v. Britney’s that sold over 1m in its first week alone. Jada is no. 3 on the NY Times Best Sellers list but she isn’t on any other best selling list. Even John Stamos’ book is outselling hers. I don’t think the poor sales have anything to do with colour. People are genuinely tired of Jada and Will at this point.
Far from a flop...it's really good
Why support someone who continues to lie lie lie and spinning narratives to garner attention and sympathy. Is she telling herself she's worthy or telling readers that they are worthy. The narcissism of them all. May God Almighty Jehovah ABBA have mercy on their souls.
I'm in Australia and it will be on sale November 29
Y’all stay coming for jada but she accomplished more before she meet will than all of you combined 😂
Yep
Exactly
💯💯
🔺️ JADA'S book would be best sold at your local DOLLAR store 🔺️
I dont know why so many folks are mad at Jada, talking bout she said so many negative things about Will. The same Will has gone on record saying he has read the book, supports her 100% and is the happinest he's ever been in their 'life partnership'...if he ain't mad, why are folks in their feelings.? Hmm.
Every time I ask someone what did she say that was so bad, they can never give a direct quote, or it was something they picked up from a blog that she never said. People don't even know why they're mad. Just mad for the hell of it.
Yall believe everything these celebrities tell you. He's living his best life .. chile please. These celebrities are messed up, drugged up, sexed up, pilled up & smoked up along with their kids. Next thing you hear is either them or their child putting a bullet in their head or overdosing & everyone is surprised. That business is cut throat & the standards of beauty is unrealistically stressful. The grind to stay relevant and youthful has led mant of these celebrities to do God knows what. They smile on Camera but behind closed doors is misery. These people have no peace and can lie better than a politician. Their job literally is to sell you a false reality. Come on people.
@@misslee3700 Are you ok?
@@EricaHansberry Better than you mentally it seems. Tell me where the lie is, but your response lets me know you have no rebuttal.

Why buy books these days give it a few days and somebody will tell you everything you need to know so it is what it is
That is dumb. You should never take someone’s word for anything. Not reading is lazy
You gotta know the book business to speak on what a flop is
The book is boring and she’s a liar. That’s why it’s not selling😅
Thanks so much
